Full details

FAQs
Is the Under Armour HB Runner 2 suitable for marathons?
These trainers are designed for everyday road running, making them suitable for training for distance events, though personal preference for cushioning level will dictate their use in a race environment.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to pass through in wet conditions.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While comfortable for light gym activity, they are specifically tuned for road running and may lack the lateral stability required for heavy lifting or multi-directional court sports.
How do I determine if these are the right size for me?
We recommend ensuring there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during a run.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The HB Runner 2 is a neutral running shoe designed to complement the natural movement of the foot without providing intrusive corrective arch support.
Troubleshooting
Feeling excessive pressure on the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing technique, such as using a window-lacing style to relieve pressure points along the midfoot.
Outsole losing traction in wet conditions
Clean the rubber outsole using a soft brush to remove debris or embedded stones that may be reducing the contact patch surface area.
Cushioning feeling less responsive over time
Allow the shoes a 'rest day' between long runs; foam materials perform best when given time to decompress after heavy impact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Under Armour HB Runner 2, ensure you are wearing the correct size for your arch type and foot width, as the mesh upper is designed to hug the foot closely. For care, keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the midsole cushioning properties. If the shoes become muddy or dusty, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the upper and the adhesive bonds of the sole. Air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
